The Rab Valiance is your new go to Down Jacket and Waterproof Jacket rolled into one. Once you zip this jacket up, nothing is getting through, ensuring you stay warm and dry whatever the weather.
The durable, waterproof Pertex Shield outer with taped seams offers protection from all outside elements, whether you get blasted with rain, sleet or snow. On the inside it has the highest quality 800 fill power hydrophobic goose down, using bonded box-wall construction to let the down loft and trap as much warm air as possible.
Other features include an insulated helmet compatible hood, YKK AquaGaurd Zips throughout, and adjustable cuffs and hem.
The Valiance waterproof down jacket from Rab is perfect for our unique winter conditions where the weather is cold but unpredictable, with rain and sleet as likely as snow.

The Rab Men's Valiance Jacket has the following sustainability attributes...
Carbon Neutral or Climate Neutral brands have been third party verified as reducing their carbon footprint, often balancing their remaining emissions with carbon credits to support projects that are combating the climate emergency.
Sometimes using animal products can be a more sustainable alternative than using non-biodegradable plastic, but it is imperative that an animal’s welfare is respected. The Responsible Down Standard (RDS) was started by The North Face, Textile Exchange, Allied Feather Down and Control Union. RDS down cannot come from farms that engage in force feeding or live plucking and they must respect the Five Freedoms of animal welfare: freedom from hunger and thirst; from discomfort; from pain, injury or disease; to express normal behaviour; and from fear and distress. Parent farm (the farm where the birds are kept for producing eggs) certification is optional unless the down is harvested there. RDS down is traceable back to source via Track My Down.

The Fair Wear Foundation is a clothing industry specific, non-profit organization that ensures sustainable, fair and safe labour conditions in factories. They work directly with brands, factories, trade unions, NGOs and governments to establish a living wage and a working environment that’s free from gender-based violence, discrimination and harassment. There is emphasis on a brand’s business practices and how this can make direct sustainable change, alongside factory audits and worker interviews.

Chest: measure around the fullest part of the chest with your arms down. Usually just under the pits.
Waist: measure around the narrowest part of the waist. Your waist is at the small of your back or where your body bends if you lean to the side.
Arm length: measure from the side of your neck to wrist fold, over the top of your arm.
Slim: a streamlined silhouette. Cut trim following the contours of the body. Expertly placed articulation of seams and the use of stretch fabric ensure maximum freedom of movement in these close-fitting terms.
Regular: neither slim nor loose. Regular fit items are the perfect balance of form fit and ease of movement.
Relaxed: a more generous fit. Cut loosely through the body allowing for ease of movement and additional layering.
Expedition: designed specifically to accommodate the layering system and equipment required for high altitude and polar expeditions.
This item can be returned by post or to your nearest Tiso Group store – for more details see our Returns Policy.
A rare find. Breathable, waterproof and very insulating. No gaps in fill along seams. Seen high winds, -10deg C, snow, rain and sleet. The hood is great. Low skirt to rear a bonus. Toasty!
